I can't figure out what the issue...???

Error:(72, 79) java: incompatible types: com.teamtreehouse.model.Song cannot be converted to java.lang.String Error:(154, 25) java: cannot find symbol symbol: method getVideoUrl() location: variable song of type java.lang.String Error:(155, 25) java: cannot find symbol symbol: method getTitle() location: variable song of type java.lang.String Error:(156, 25) java: cannot find symbol symbol: method getArtist() location: variable song of type java.lang.String

Error 1: case "choose": String singerName = promptForSingerName(); String artist = promptArtist(); Song artistSong = promptSongForArtist(artist); SongRequest songRequest = new SongRequest(singerName, artistSong); if (mSongQueue.contains(songRequest)) { System.out.printf("%n%n Whoops %s already requested %s!", singerName, artistSong); break; }

Errors 2, 3, 4: public void playNext() { SongRequest songRequest = mSongQueue.poll(); if (songRequest == null) { System.out.println("Sorry there are no songs in the queue. Use choose " + "from the menu to add more songs."); } else { String song = songRequest.getSong(); System.out.printf("%n%n%n Ready %s? Open %s to hear %s by %s %n%n%n", songRequest.getSingerName(), song.getVideoUrl(), song.getTitle(), song.getArtist()); } }
